Meese + Stephenie Meyer = bffz
Hi guys, Nathan here. Now for something that you probably didn’t know about Ben and me. We’re into Twilight. Like IN TO it. It started when we were visiting our record label almost a year ago and they had a bunch of copies of the book laying around and I needed something to read on the airplane on the way back to Denver. Anyways – it was one of those obsessed-at-first-page type scenarios where I didn’t put the book down for two days and two nights until it was completely absorbed by my eyes and my brain. If you’d of told me earlier in my life that I’d be reading vampire love story saga I’d call you crazy, but sometimes life throws you curveballs…
So I finished ‘Eclipse’ (the third book) about a week ago before a show with Copeland in Cali. I bought ‘Breaking Dawn’ (the last one) at the airport in San Francisco before I flew home to Denver to play a show. Yadda yadda we’re playing our first show with The Fray in Phoenix two nights ago and I had been reading the in the dressing room and got to page 120 or something like that when all of a sudden some says in passing really nonchalant “Yeah, the Twilight author, Stephenie Meyer is gonna be here tonight”. Then I had this split second indecision of “Should I try to play it cool and act like I meet super famous genius writers all the time? OR should I flip out and tell her what a big fan I am and get my picture taken with her?”. I think it’s pretty obvious which one I picked. Stephenie was AWESOME. We got to hang out and chatted for a while! If it wasn’t for the fact that we had to go on stage to play, I probably would’ve tried to talk to her all night.
Nice to meet Stephenie.

Wow! Lucky you! I’m totally jealous :/

Wow that sounds awesome. You have to read The Host – in some ways it’s better than Twilight. Not quite so obsessive but really great story.

Love your music and love Stephenie.

I’m glad you’re man enough to admit it.
I’m having issues getting through Breaking Dawn though! It’s not so hot, in my opinion.

Next in line should soooooooo be on the Eclipse soundtrack! It so describes Bella and Jacob’s relationship. Right when they kiss the second time it should start playing! Since Stephenie is a fan it should totaly work out! I heart Meese and Stephiene Meyer and Twilight

Love this post! Steph is a friend of mine, and I know exactly what you mean about being so cool to talk to, she is a wonderful person! So thoughtful and intelligent! I love her passion for music and credit half of what I now love to her influence!
I was at the AZ Premiere on the 18th and heard you guys for the first time! I was actually sitting directly behind you and wanted to lean forward and tell you all how I instantly enjoyed your music, but didn’t want to look like a total “groupie” type. But I had to tell you what a huge fan I am now! I have been listening to your cd and nothing else for the last week! And I LOVE it!!!! So excited to go to your show next time you are in AZ. Thanks so much!! Sincerely~Hez!
